A particular sample of air is 2.5% water vapor express the concentration of water vapor in parts per million

Chemistry

Inessa05 [86]3 years ago

Answer:

                     25000 ppm

Explanation:

<em>Parts Per Million </em>is defined as the number of parts of a solute per one million parts of a solution.

                  ppm  =  (Weight of Solute / Weight of Solution) × 10⁶   ---(1)

Let us suppose that the air (solution) weights 100 grams, then 2.5 % of water vapors will have following mass,

Mass of Vapors g / 100 g × 100  =  2.5

Or,

Mass of Vapors = 2.5 × 100 / 100

Mass of Vapors  =  2.5 g

Hence, mass of water vapors is 2.5 g.

Now, putting mass of water vapors and air in eq. 1,

                  ppm  =  (2.5 / 100) × 10⁶

                 ppm  =  25000

1. Give the best advice on being understanding but kinda flirty to a friend that is a girl.
Nina [5.8K]
Being understanding is flirty/attractive on its own. listening to her and asking questions bout the situation really shows her that you care and will make you attractive, also maybe inviting to go out to get her mind off things or getting her her fav candy & some other cute little things really will show her that you like her. just be nice to her and listen to what she has to say.

Explain why the quantum number set (3, 3, -2, +½) is not possible for an electron in a ground-state atom.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:- It's not correct because the values of n and l are same.

Explanations:- The four quantum numbers are n, l, ml and ms where n stands for Principal quantum number and has values like 1, 2, 3 and so on.

l stands for azimuthal quantum number and has values from 0 to (n-1) where n is principal quantum number.

For the given set of quantum numbers, value of n is 3. So, the possible values of l would be 0,1 and 2.

The value of l for the given set of quantum numbers is 3 which is the reason why the given set is not possible.

If a gas at 25oC occupies 3.60 L at a pressure of 2.50 atm, what will be its volume at a pressure of 1.00 atm if the temperature
Elenna [48]

Answer:

9L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume V₁ = 3.6L

Initial pressure P₁  = 2.5atm

Final pressure P₂  = 1atm

Unknown:

Final volume V₂  = ?

Condition: constant temperature  = 25°C

Solution:

This problem compares the volume and pressure of a gas at constant temperature.

This is highly synonymous to the postulate of Boyle's law. It states that "the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure provided that temperature is constant".

Mathematically;

              P₁V₁  = P₂V₂

where P and V are pressure and volume

          1 and 2 are initial and final states

Input the parameters and solve for V₂;

          2.5 x 3.6  = 1 x V₂

                  V₂  = 9L

Does covalency fail in explaining the formation of BeCl2 and PCl5? Explain
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Yes , covalency fails to explain the formation of BeCl₂ and PCl₅.

Explanation:

covalent bonds are formed between two atoms  by sharing of outermost electrons in order to attain octet for attaining stability . To octet means to attain 8 electrons in their outermost orbit .

BeCl₂ :

Be has two electrons in its outermost orbit and each of Cl has 7 electrons .

Each of Cl shares one electron each with each of two electrons of Be . Cl atoms attain 8 electrons as octet . But Be attains only 4 electrons ( 2 of Be and 2 from Cl atoms ) . Hence octet of Be is not attained . So covalency fails in the formation of BeCl₂ .

PCl₅ :

P has 5 electrons in the outermost orbit . Each of these electrons shares with one  electron from  each of Cl atoms . Thus Cl attains octel state ( 8 electrons ) but P attains 10 electrons ( 5 + 5 ) , 5 of P and 5 from 5 Cl atoms .

Hence Octet of P is not attained . Hence covalency fails in the formation of PCl₅ .
